Clothes, recipes, kids, interiors, London…

… essential kit if you’re thinking about taking any under-5s of a nervous disposition to a firework display. Or just to use in the house on Firework night, which last year was like the freaking blitz in NW5.

Strange how the most innocuous of things before you have children become an insane pain in arse afterwards:

fireworks night: SHUT THE FUCK UP

saturday night SHUT THE FUCK UP

Hallowe’en: STOP GIVING MY KIDS SO MUCH FUCKING CHOCOLATE AT 6PM THEY’RE GOING TO GO INSANE THEN DO A BROWN SICK ON THE FLOOR

clocks going forwards/clocks going back WHY DOES THIS HAVE TO HAPPEN MY KIDS ARE NOW WAKING UP AT 5AM/WON’T GO TO FUCKING BED

winter: WHY IS IT SO FUCKING COLD AND DARK AND WET THIS IS A NIGHTMARE

summer: WHY IS IT SO FUCKING HOT WHY IS EVERYONE OUTSIDE SHOUTING AND SMOKING AT 10PM
